In this episode, Steve Athanates is joined by Steve Beach from Stanford Financial to break down the latest RBA interest rate announcement, with the cash rate rising from 3.6% to 3.85%. They unpack what’s driving the decision, including annual inflation jumping to 3.8%, well above the RBA’s target band of 2–3%, and why trimmed inflation continues to concern policymakers. The conversation also explores how cost-of-living pressures, supply and demand, and delayed economic impacts all play a role in where rates may head next.","meta_description":"Welcome to the first episode of Ipswich’s Real Estate Podcast for 2026.
